Story Behind The Book
My daughter, Sofie Lyddon, who is a post-graduate fashion design student, came up with the title for "Raising A Happy Spirit: The Inner Wisdom of Parenting." She also created the illustrations found throughout the book.
“Raising A Happy Spirit: The Inner Wisdom of Parenting” is published by MiniBuk, a new concept in the publishing industry. It is like no other book you have read on parenting--a little book packed with powerful messages. In this format, the book is easy to read, easy to carry, and most importantly, an easy way to pass the meaningful messages on to friends. This book is great for parents, grandparents, educators, caregivers, and anyone who wants to add more depth to the relationships in their lives.
